This is a great recipe for feeding a crowd-it doubles, triples and quadruples very well. It can be easily fixed ahead and held for a while until ready to bake. So easy that a young chef can make it! Bill's family and friends asked him to fix this dish for just about every gathering that we had together. His mother wasn't much of a cook but this was her go-to dish!
